Driving roads in Michigan
United States · Michigan

Michigan

Michigan’s driving roads are shaped by the Great Lakes, with long shoreline routes, forested two-lane highways, rolling glacial terrain, and more rugged scenery in the Upper Peninsula. The Lower Peninsula offers lake-country and orchard roads, while the Keweenaw Peninsula adds rocky ridges, Lake Superior views, and remote scenic routes.

Driving in Michigan

Michigan rewards drivers with variety rather than high mountain passes. In the northwest Lower Peninsula, M-22 traces Lake Michigan, inland lakes, wooded hills, farmland, and the Leelanau Peninsula, while M-119’s narrow Tunnel of Trees follows a bluff-lined corridor north of Harbor Springs. Farther north, crossing the Straits of Mackinac opens access to the Upper Peninsula, where US-2, M-28, and US-41 link long stretches of forest and Great Lakes shoreline. The Keweenaw Peninsula is particularly distinctive: the Copper Country Trail follows US-41 toward Copper Harbor, with side routes such as Brockway Mountain Drive climbing onto exposed ridges above Lake Superior. Eastern Upper Peninsula routes around Whitefish Bay and Tahquamenon country offer a different character, with flatter forest roads and long, lightly developed sections. Michigan also maintains an extensive network of designated Pure Michigan Byways, making scenic driving routes easy to combine into longer road trips.
